Santa's Lap

We had a ward Christmas party earlier

in the month and one of the guys in the

ward dressed up like Old Saint Nick!

Caitlin in particular was kinda nervous
but he was so kind to her that she

warmed up to him quite well. Evelyn

informed him that she wanted presents

for Christmas and Caitlin whispered

"I love you" in his ear. Spencer just

wanted one of the candy canes that

Santa was handing out!

No Pictures Please

I just love
James!!
He'll
probably
kill me for
blogging
him, but I
found this
picture
when
I was
looking


through Picasa and it made me laugh. So there's this civil
war battle field down where my parents live. Anyway
this past summer on our way home we stopped and
walked around for a while. You know how it is...stand in
front of a bunch of memorials and take pictures of each
other. Well...I guess James would rather stick his head
in a canon than have his picture taken! I suppose I
should be in awe of his dedication in being humble but
mostly it just makes me laugh!

Homeowner's glee

Well James and I have moved up in the world. We are finally home owners!! Yay :) Some you may think.. is that it?! but every time I tell the girls..." take your clothes to the laundry room", or look at paint samples or when I find new squeaky spots on the floor, I can't help but smile. Kinda cheesy I know but I don't care. I can finally paint my walls AND my washer and dryer are inside my house and they're mine all mine...well mine and the banks'... and James'.
